Just when he was playing the best baseball of his college career, LSU junior second baseman JaCoby Jones missed practice Friday with flu-like symptoms and was trying to get better Saturday evening for the Tigers' College World Series opener against UCLA at 7 Sunday night in TD Ameritrade Park.

"Certainly, we expect him to be OK by Sunday," LSU coach Paul Mainieri told reporters on Friday.
